LaserWave WideBand Multimode Fiber is a 50 micron (µm) laser-optimized multimode fiber designed to help meet the demanding requirements of today’s OM4 networks, as well as next-generation, short wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) applications.

This wideband fiber extends the ability of conventional OM4 multimode fiber to support multiple wavelengths using SWDM. Unlike traditional multimode fiber, OFS LaserWave WideBand Fiber is designed to support traffic over a range of wavelengths from 846 nm to 953 nm. This capability allows multiple lanes of traffic over the same strand of fiber, helping to significantly improve the bandwidth capacity of mujltimode fiber while also maintaining its cost advantages for short-distance applications, up to 300 meters or more.

Product Description

Building on the history of LaserWave FLEX 550 (OM4) Fiber, LaserWave WideBand Fiber meets current OM4 requirements while also supporting CWDM applications from 850 to 950 nm. This fiber supports planned four wavelength 100 Gb/s applications, while providing future proofing for tomorrow’s 400 Gb/s and higher speeds.
